Routledge Handbook of Peacebuilding

'This is an excellent addition to the roster of background texts on peacebuilding and its many dimensions. It contains multiple up-to-date chapters that illustrate the complexity of the challenges facing peacebuilding, and the inadequacy of the current peace architectures and infrastructures as well as many of its processes. This is a must-read for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses on peace and conflict.' Oliver P. Richmond, University of Manchester, UK 'The Routledge Handbook of Peacebuilding has garnered acclaim as an authoritative reference and educational text over the last decade. In its second edition, it further enriches its utility by incorporating critical assessments of emerging peacebuilding trends, amplifying perspectives from the Global South, and offering insightful reflections on the intricate nature of peacebuilding.' SungYong Lee, Professor, Soka University, Japan 'With wars raging around the planet and numerous long-running conflicts unresolved, the need for peacebuilding has never been greater. Roger Mac Ginty has put together a cutting-edge collection of works on making and sustaining peace. The Handbook of Peacebuilding is particularly adept in showing the multi-dimensional nature of conflict and the need for us to take issues of gender, race, climate change, and poverty seriously when seeking to build peace.'
